The Republicans did not request the ballots. They mailed requests for ballots to voters. The voters requested the ballots.

Yes, the forms did not have a space for the voter registration number.

Let me ask you a question. If the voter had sent in a letter telling the voter registration staff that they had forgotten their number, and asking the staff to fill it in, would it be illegal for the staff to fill it in?

If so, why?

And if not, why is it illegal for anyone else to do it for them?

I already know the real answer. Because otherwise, Gore can't win. But I'd love to see your explanation.

Since when is it illegal to MAIL an absentee ballot request to a voter? I assume both parties have done it in Florida; I KNOW both parties do it in Washington, which, unlike Florida, has a clean and honest electoral system.
